I almost never recommend reading the New York Times, but this article is hilarious. Some highlights: Tesla recommends not using the car’s heater in cold weather; recharging takes one hour (plus), and when you run out of juice you can’t release the parking brake to push or tow the car. To quote Robert Bryce: “Electric cars are the next big thing—and they always will be.”

“Mr. Ibsen carefully maneuvered the flatbed close to the charging kiosk, and 25 minutes later, with the battery sufficiently charged to release the parking brake and drive off the truck, the car was back on the ground. A Model S owner who had taken delivery the previous day watched with interest.”

Did the new owner relinquish his use of the kiosk?

I guess the odds are pretty good that when you get to a kiosk, no one else will be using it.
